This year’s Cannes Soundtrack Award went to Sirat, Oliver Laxe’s desert techno-trance odyssey. Inspired by rave and free party culture, the film is more than a homage: it’s a visceral, spiritual journey through the Moroccan desert. Kangding Ray’s powerful, evolving score moves from deep, percussive techno to ethereal ambient soundscapes, seamlessly blending with Laia Casanova’s sound design. Together, they craft a “third narration” where image, story, and music merge into a transformative experience.

When she’s not serving as a music supervisor at BMM, Elise Kravets is a member of the reissue label Les Éditions Vermillon. The team of Parisian diggers has released their second vinyl compilation, focused on forgotten musical gems from a region in France.
